Green roofs offer tangible benefits for end users, inhabitants, owners and the greater community. They can range from economic and ecological to social and aesthetic reasons.

Joints and junctions are the weakest parts of floors in industrial environments. They are exposed to similar stresses as the floor itself, but also must accommodate possible movement in the structure or between building components. It is ideal to provide surfaces with hygienic, jointless connections.

Green roofs work by creating a roofing surface that allows for vegetation to grow and water to drain through. They absorb rainwater through the build-up of plants, soil, and drainage layer down to the waterproofing membrane and substrate.

A durable floor is one that lasts a long time, remains functional, and resists deterioration or loss of performance. Durable floors begin with quality materials, good design and sound workmanship. What matters most to ensuring durability in floors, especially in food and beverage factories?

The European Union has established new laws for the use of products containing more than 0.1% of monomeric diisocyanates, including polyurethane products such as adhesives, sealants, coatings, or injections used in industrial production or construction. Here you can access the required PU training and find alternative products available in Sika's product range.

There are a lot of things that different industries have learned from one another over time. One example is the food and beverage industry and what it has learned from pharmaceuticals, particularly how they conduct research and run production operations.

Green roofs are not a new concept, but they have grown in popularity over the past decade as people aim to achieve more sustainable construction projects and utilize previously unused spaces, such as flat roofs.

Sometimes fast repair and quick return to service are the most critical factors for polyurethane floor installation. How can you apply all layers of a Sika floor system in just one day? How can you achieve standard floor application followed by extremely fast curing, to have polyurethane floors walkable within a very short time frame?

Η Ευρωπαϊκή Ένωση έχει θεσπίσει μια νέα νομοθεσία σχετικά με τη χρήση προϊόντων που περιέχουν μονομερή διισοκυανικά σε περιεκτικότητα μεγαλύτερη του 0.1%, συμπεριλαμβανομένων προϊόντων πολυουρεθάνης, όπως συγκολλητικά, σφραγιστικά, βαφές ή ενέματα που χρησιμοποιούνται στον κατασκευαστικό κλάδο και τη βιομηχανία. Εδώ μπορείτε να έχετε πρόσβαση στην εκπαίδευση που απαιτείται από τον κανονισμό και να βρείτε τα εναλλακτικά, διαθέσιμα προϊόντα από τη σειρά προϊόντων της Sika.

Roofers face multiple problems on site today. 80% of failed roofs and leaks are caused by non-roofers. Therefore, it is a main priority to protect the roofer’s craftmanship from traffic on the rooftop during the total building phase, during construction and beyond.

Construction foams are an exceptionally versatile group of products used in many areas of daily work. Below you can learn more about their properties and also about the preparation and application process.

The task of wood floor adhesives is to firmly bond the organic wood floor elements to the generally inorganic screed. The adhesive must hold the wood in place, connect it to the underlying screed and transfer stress originating from the natural expansion and contraction of the wood to the generally rigid screed. The undesired but natural movement of the wood can become visible in cupping, joint formation, or in extreme situations failure of the adhesive or screed.

Sika’s passive fire protection solutions are designed to be able to seal all different types of building joints and penetrations, in order to help keep fire in defined compartments for a certain period of time, thereby allowing people to evacuate safely.
